about this campus not being receptive to minorities,
that this is a way to show that the students, faculty
and the community are receptive,” Benson said. “It
shows that we have something in place to promote
unity and diversity and that we are all Aggies.”
Darcie Durham, a senior aerospace engineering
major, said she will be attending Whoopstock
because it is a chance to see what other cultures
have to offer.
“I am so limited academically in what I get to do
that I see this as a chance to learn a little about other
cultures,” she said. “I think this event will not only
promote unity and diversity, but it’s a demonstra
tion of the friendliness this campus is known for.”
Approximately 400 people attended the first
Whoopstock in 1993, Benson said.
Other Parents’ Weekend activities include a
Midnight Yell Practice at Kyle Field and the Aggie
Moms' Boutique in Reed Arena from 1 I a.m. to
4:30 p.m. today and 9 to 5 p.m. Saturday. Saturday
activities include an open house at President Dr.
Ray M. Bowen and Vice President for Student
Affairs Dr. J. Malon Southerland’s homes from I 1
